I always think it's funny how these hypocratic douchbags will wear masks in public to prevent people from recognizing them but wont wear one to save their neighbors life.
I also think it's funny how they claimed having military and police joining the groups that they know what they're doing, when these people spend their lives being told exactly what to do, how to do it, and what to think about it.
Last note, looked this one up just to be double sure, how they got a guy with the name Mizrahi to join a white power hate group when that name has origins rooted Jewish and Israeli cultures is beyond me. How people can be convinced to go against their own best interest is beyond me.
Reminds me of the movie easy rider, and that movie was made in the sixties but its still so relevant, every time people start trying to live freely
It's tempting to dwell on the hypocrisy, after all, surely saying one thing and doing another should be the ultimate way to scare people away from your ideology. Even the Right is obsessed with highlighting perceived inconsistencies and hypocrisies from the Left. But at this stage in the game, with climate change, culture wars, and a fractured population that shares no common values, hypocrisy is small potatoes. Let's hold people's feet over the coals and make sure that the right policies get passed.
